Two cars, a and b, are traveling with the same speed of 40. 0 m/s, each having started from rest. Car a has a mass of 1200 kg, a

nd car b has a mass of 2000 kg. Compared to the work required to bring car a up to speed, how much additional work is required to bring car b up to speed?.

W=K_B-K_A
W=m_B v^2/2-m_A v^2/2=(m_B-m_A)v^2/2
W=(2000-1200) 〖40〗^2/2=640000 J=640 kJ.

A railroad car of mass 2.00 3 104 kg moving at 3.00 m/s collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars, each of the same ma
FrozenT [24]

Given:

Mass of the rail road car, m = 2 kg

velocity of the three cars coupled system, v' = 1.20 m/s

velocity of first car, v_{a} = 3 m/s

Solution:

a) Momentum of a body of mass 'm' and velocity 'v' is given by:

p = mv

Now for the coupled system according to law of conservation of momentum, total momentum of a system before and after collision remain conserved:

mv_{a} + 2mv_{b} = (m + 2m)v'                        (1)

where,

v_{a} = velocity of the first car

v_{b} = velocity of the 2 coupled cars after collision

Now, from eqn (1)

v' = \frac{v_{a} + 2v_{b}}{3}

v' = \frac{3.00 + 2\times 1.20}}{3}

v' = 1.80 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the combined car system after collision is 1.80 m/s

An object is formed by attaching a uniform, thin rod with a mass of mr = 6.9 kg and length L = 4.88 m to a uniform sphere with m
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a)  total moment of inertia is 1359.05 kg m^2

b) angular acceleratio is 0.854rad/sec^2

Explanation:

Given data:

m1=6.9 kg

L=4.88 m

m2=34.5 kg

R=1.22 m

we klnow that moment of inertia for rod is given as

J1=(1/12) ×m×L^2

J1 = (1/12) \times 6.9 \times 4.88^2 = 13.693 kg m^2

moment of inertia for sphere is given as

J1=(2/5) ×m×r^2

J1 = (2/5) \times 34.5 \times 1.22^2 = 20.539 kg m^2

As object rotates around free end of rod then for sphere the axis around what it rotates is at a distance of d2=L+R

For rod distance is  d1=0.5*L

By Steiner theorem

for the rod we get J_1'=J_1 + m_1\times d_1^2

J_1' = 13.693 + 2.44^2\times 6.9 = 54.77 kg m^2

for the sphere we get J_2' = J_2 + m_2\times d_2^2

J2' = 20.539 + 34.5\times 6.1^2 = 1304.28 kg^m2

And the total moment of inertia for the first case is

J_{t1} = J_1'+J_2' = 54.77 + 1304.28 = 1359.05kg.m^2

b) F=476 N

The torque for system is given as

M = F\times d\times sin(a)

where a is angle between Force and distance d

and where d represent distance from rotating axis.

In this case a = 90 degree  

M = F\times L/2

M=476*2.44 = 1161.44 Nm

The acceleration is calculated as

a_1 = \frac{M}{J_{t1}}

      = \frac{1161.44}{1359.05}

      = 0.854 rad/sec^2
